The Smithsonian is among the premier research institutions in the world, widely known for the integrity of its scholarship, which is careful and based on historical and scientific evidence. The Institution ardently pursues the purpose for which it was established more than 175 years ago: \u201cthe increase and diffusion of knowledge.\u201d The accusation in the White House fact sheet accompanying the executive order claims that Smithsonian museums are displaying \u201cimproper, divisive, or anti-American ideology.\u201d This is simply untrue; it misrepresents the work of those museums and the public\u2019s engagement with their collections and exhibits.
